weather

Today was one of those perfect days we all talk about. No clouds perfect blue sky and little wind. The temperature this morning was 48 degrees with a high of 75 this afternoon, pretty much a perfect day.

I am enjoying a couple of days off this week to rest up and prepare for my next set of trips. Hurricane Bill passed by yesterday. We were concerned because Noah (our oldest son) was riding out the storm in Southwest Harbor aboard the Rachel B Jackson, the schooner he has been working on all summer. The forecast predicted that all would be well and it was.

Yesterday was a perfect summer day. Warm but not hot, clear followed by a cloudless warm evening. This morning dawned foggy and cool but by mid morning the fog had lifted and the sea breeze was strengthening. Clouds began to cover the sky heralding another evening of rain showers.
